Description

A practical, research-based, and classroom-proven way to study words with students. Designed as a supplement to the text Words Their Way(R) with English Learners, this practical, research-based, classroom-proven approach to studying words with students provides a complete curriculum for within word pattern spellers from Spanish-speaking backgrounds. The approach focuses on vocabulary development and linguistic commonalities and contrasts to help support students as they advance in English. The text outlines a curriculum designed to scaffold students in four ways: 1) Carefully pacing and sequencing word study learning from simple to more complex features 2) Starting with the most common and high-utility English words 3) Teaching vocabulary through pictures and word-picture matching 4) Providing opportunities to build on the Spanish language skills that students bring from their home language Included are prepared reproducible sorts and step-by-step directions on how to guide students through the sorting lesson, make literature connections, and follow-up activities to extend the lesson through weekly routines. Teachers will find it easy to use this guide as a complement to existing phonics, spelling, and reading curricula.
